All my range guns have suppressors in addition to my owning high quality ear pro. You don't need a suppressor to shoot, but it's a kind thing to do for your future ability to use your ears.

You don't need 35 of them, but one per caliber is a good start.

What muffs/plugs do you use? I use a Peltor Optime III, and some molded plugs. I eschew dynamic stuff because they don't give enough protection. Granted I don't do much indoor shooting (never have). What I found hardest is tactical manouvering in the field shooting with coms on one ear.

Lately I've been trying out the walkers razor quad BT for the range, the wood shop, and yard work. At the range I also have a no name bag of foam plugs I also wear.
